I'm thinking perhaps I was a little too hasty in my judgment of the situation with Jason. I chatted with him on Tuesday, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary, so maybe he really was just super busy when I caught him that last time. Who knows. Regardless, my sentiments are still the same about missing him and his friendship, and I would still like to spend some time with him and make sure that we're on the same page, especially considering we haven't hung out in over two months.In other news, this is my last weekend of vacation! I've actually already started on some work for next semester. My pharmacology class is going to be tough, so I've started reviewing the first lecture in order to get a head start. And I have an exam the second week of school for meds -- I actually have to give out medications to my patients this semester. Scary! If I don't get at least a 90 on the test, I can't go to my clinical (makes sense), so I've started going over some of that information. The next two weeks are going to be pretty intense, what with getting back into the swing of classes and studying and all that reading I'll have to do. I'm kind of looking forward to it, though, considering I've felt like a total bum the last three weeks.
I'm hoping my last weekend of freedom for the next four months will be exciting. Well, not really. But I am happy to be spending it with NB (like every other weekend, I guess). We actually went out to dinner on Wednesday and had a really wonderful evening. It was one of those totally unexpectedly great nights. We just randomly picked this really cozy place, and we sat down and ate and talked (and talked and talked and talked), and we were there for almost four hours. He's such an interesting guy, and he totally makes me laugh. The more time I spend with him, the more I realize how much I like him. And our conversations are gradually getting to the more meaty, meaningful topics, though not necessarily in any really personal ways. It more seems like we're still feeling each other out for potential longevity (although, for what it's worth, I'm pretty certain I could see a future for us).
Anyhow, things are great, and we continue to make lots of plans for future weekends. This weekend we're going out with some of his friends on Saturday, then Sunday we're going to the Art Deco exhibit at the MFA, which we didn't make it to last weekend. Next weekend we're going gambling at one of the casinos a couple of hours away from Boston, and we've even got some stuff planned for February and March. And to top it off, we talked last weekend about splitting the cost of the baseball tickets I've got for next spring and summer (though we talked about starting off with maybe three or four games and seeing what happens -- no use getting ahead of ourselves!). So yes, I guess there's a future there. All I know is I'm happy, and I look forward to every date we have planned together. And I'm really looking forward to next semester and all the challenging and interesting things I'm planning on learning. But first, I'm going to live it up this weekend!
